Predecessor Builds > Feng Mao > 🔥SPICY🔥JUNGLE FENG MAO BUILD!!!

Core Items

Mindrazor:
-Mindrazor scales based on max mana and adds extra damage to your auto-attacks, which benefits Feng Mao's combo-focused playstyle.
-Converts a portion of your mana into extra physical damage on your basic attacks.
-Feng Mao often combos' abilities with basic attacks, so Mindrazor increases his damage output significantly. This item boosts his sustained damage during extended engagements.

Tainted trident:
-Tainted Trident helps counter sustain-heavy enemies while giving Feng Mao some extra bulk with health and mana.
-Applies Grievous Wounds when dealing ability damage, reducing the healing and regeneration of affected enemies.
- As a frontliner who engages often, Feng Mao benefits from being able to reduce enemy healing. With the burst potential from his Reaping Dash and Earth Shatter, he can apply Grievous Wounds to key targets, limiting their sustain in team fights.

Penumbra:
-Penumbra focuses on boosting Feng Mao's basic attack damage through crits and attack speed, ideal for long fights or follow-up after his initial burst.
-Boosts critical damage, allowing Feng Mao to capitalize on his auto-attacks after using abilities to engage.
-After diving in with abilities, Feng Mao can rely on his enhanced auto-attacks for follow-up damage. The crits from Penumbra help him deal more damage over time, especially in extended skirmishes where basic attacks play a role after the initial burst.

Mutilator:
-Mutilator provides physical power, penetration, and sustain through omnivamp, perfect for burst damage and staying alive in fights.
-Adds extra on-hit burst damage and lifesteal, making it perfect for melee fighters who want to sustain themselves during and after a burst of damage.
-The on-hit damage synergizes well with Feng Mao’s Reaping Dash and basic attack follow-ups, while the omnivamp allows him to stay in fights longer, healing from both abilities and basic attacks. This makes Mutilator an excellent sustain tool when he's engaging in 1v1s or diving into team fights.
